US President Donald Trump asks to allocate $ 18 billion from the budget for building a wall on the border with Mexico.
The corresponding proposal was sent by the American president to the congressmen.
According to the White House proposal, this money is needed to build 500 kilometers of the wall and to strengthen 650 kilometers of already existing barriers, writes The Washington Post.
Earlier, the cost of building fortifications on the border with Mexico was not formally named.
According to the plan, the construction is planned to be completed by 2027.
In the House of Representatives and the Senate, the majority belongs to Republicans who support Donald Trump's policy.
When it comes to discussing the allocation of funds for the construction of the wall, it is not known at this time.
Recall the US-Frontier Customs Service has issued requirements for a wall at the US border with Mexico. It should be 5 to 9 meters tall, look aesthetically against the background of the surrounding natural environment and resistant to attempts to destroy or damage it.
